HELLO ALL!! from a friendly Canadian :)

Hey how's everyone doing?

I'm a Canadian fan and I'll be traveling to Spain in June and may catch a pre-season game. Hope everything goes well.

Question though for anyone in Spain, I like Barcelona but I'll be going to Valencia. Do shops in Valencia sell other teams jerseys or will it be strictly the Valencia jerseys?

Also, if I'm walking down the street in Valencia/Madrid wearing a Barcelona jersey, will I be attacked?

yes I know, maybe a dumb question...but I've never been to Europe before and "Football hooligans" get a bad image in the media here. All you ever hear about is how crazy the European fans are lol.

Any help would be much appreciated .

hey...about the hooligans... its not that bad if you dont do stupid things. if you see a big group running then run too.

nah dont worry about it.
welcome on the forum anyway.

Welcome matey - nice to have you with us.

But - please remember that Barcelona is in Catalunya - the people there regard themselves as much part of Spain as Canadians regard themselves the 51st state of USA, or part of France, or whatever

Putrum will probaly tell you about it

Welcome!

Hi, I think that in Valencia you will find shops that will sell Barça's shirts. And I suppose that isn't a problem walking to the streets of Valencia and Madrid wearing a Barça's shirt if you aren't unlucky and meet radical fans or annoying people. I wouldn't do it because Madrid and Valencia are the regions were hate more Barça but well don't think that you have problems. Perhaps I would only do it if Barça played there a Copa's final and there were a lot of fans in the street

Welcome to the forum..... EH

EH! lol.

I was just in the states and i was talking with this girl in a shop and I must've said "eh" cause she was like "OMGGG YOU SAID EH!!" and i was like.......sure lol.

But yeah thanks for the help, everyone! If I see a Barc jersey I'll prolly get a Henry one. I'll just try not to wear it till I'm back in Canada. haha

oh and by the way, I am in no way or form a fan of that joke of a league, the MLS. I hate it lol. Toronto FC is horrid as well.

whats with the EH then? is that what canadians say?

hello! welcome to the forum i take it you're a fan of atreyu and avenged sevenfold...just a wild guess

Yeah that's sorta what's associated with Canadians. The thing is...we don't even realize we say it...it's a sort of accent I suppose lol.

And to the above poster, yeah I like both bands. Atreyu's new stuff isn't the best but I liked Avenged's new album better than city of evil.

Welcome and enjoy.
